Intradermal delivery of imiquimod using polymeric microneedles for basal cell carcinoma (2020)
Journal Article
Sabri, A. H., Cater, Z., Gurnani, P., Ogilvie, J., Segal, J., Scurr, D. J., & Marlow, M. (2020). Intradermal delivery of imiquimod using polymeric microneedles for basal cell carcinoma. International Journal of Pharmaceutics, 589, Article 119808. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijpharm.2020.119808

Despite being one of the most efficacious drugs used in the treatment of basal cell carcinoma (BCC), imiquimod has limited cutaneous permeation. The current work presents the development of polyvinylpyrrolidone-co-vinyl acetate (PVPVA) microneedles l...

Intradermal Delivery of an Immunomodulator for Basal Cell Carcinoma; Expanding the Mechanistic Insight into Solid Microneedle-Enhanced Delivery of Hydrophobic Molecules (2020)
Journal Article
Sabri, A., Ogilvie, J., McKenna, J., Segal, J., Scurr, D., & Marlow, M. (2020). Intradermal Delivery of an Immunomodulator for Basal Cell Carcinoma; Expanding the Mechanistic Insight into Solid Microneedle-Enhanced Delivery of Hydrophobic Molecules. Molecular Pharmaceutics, 17(8), 2925–2937. https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.molpharmaceut.0c00347

Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the most common cutaneous malignancy in humans. One of the most efficacious drugs used in the management of BCC is the immunomodulator, imiquimod. However, imiquimod has physiochemical properties that limit its permeatio...

Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles (2020)
Journal Article
Sabri, A. H., Cater, Z., Ogilvie, J., Scurr, D. J., Marlow, M., & Segal, J. (2020). Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles. Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology, 58, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jddst.2020.101766

The protection provided by the human skin is mostly attributed to the stratum corneum. However, this barrier also limits the range of molecules that can be delivered into and across the skin. One of the methods to overcome this physiological barrier... Read More about Characterisation of mechanical insertion of commercial microneedles.

The electrospinning of a thermo-responsive polymer with peptide conjugates for phenotype support and extracellular matrix production of therapeutically relevant mammalian cells (2020)
Journal Article
Ruiter, F. A., Sidney, L. E., Kiick, K. L., Segal, J. I., Alexander, C., & Rose, F. R. A. J. (2020). The electrospinning of a thermo-responsive polymer with peptide conjugates for phenotype support and extracellular matrix production of therapeutically relevant mammalian cells. Biomaterials Science, 8(9), 2611-2626. https://doi.org/10.1039/c9bm01965k

Current cell expansion methods for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications rely on the use of enzymatic digestion passaging and 2D platforms. However, this enzymatic treatment significantly reduces cell quality, due to the destructi...
